Having trouble figuring out how much an e-discovery project may cost?
You are not alone. Estimating tasks and work within e-discovery
projects can be daunting. Within this site you will find several
generic models relating to forecasting and estimating e-discovery
projects. The models are all interactive so feel free to play
around with your current project scenario to understand some key
business metrics. The models are not perfect and in no way represent
precise measures. The main reason for this is that e-discovery
projects work within data sets that, from project to project, vary
wildly. There are literally millions of different scenarios and
data combinations that could be examined within any given e-discovery
project. Depending on the request and matter type considerations
may need to be made on a wide range of topics including the source of
the data, the physical location of the data, the type of data, it's
associated availability and often time, how the data is managed.
The models attempt to generically assess probable cost and time based
on some simple data volume measures. Again, the models are
imperfect and are intended to be used as a discussion catalyst with
counsel, clients and IT departments when assessing the rough cost,
duration and review resource needs on an e-discovery matter.
